Kate and Pete enjoy Ibiza sun - June 1 2007
Kate Moss and Pete Doherty have apparently been spotted soaking up the sun on a beach in Ibiza - in his ’n’ hers skinny jeans.

The couple were relaxing on the island’s Es Cavallet beach, and kissed, cuddled and drank sangria alongside other holiday-makers, reports The Sun.

Kate was stripped down to a bikini top and Pete was topless, but both stars refused to take off their skin-tight denim jeans for the occasion.

An onlooker told The Sun: "They looked very much in love.

"They were just the same as me and my girlfriend on our holiday - only they wouldn’t take off their drainpipe jeans."

Earlier this month it was reported that the supermodel was desperate to have a baby with the 28-year-old Babyshambles rocker.

Kate, 33, already has a four-year-old daughter, Lila Grace, from her relationship with publisher Jefferson Hack. Pete, who has entered rehab several times, already has a son by his ex-lover Lisa Moorish.


Kate’s fashion range rakes in millions - May 18 2007
Kate Moss’s fashion range at Topshop generated sales of around £3 million in its first week, it emerged today.

That figure exceeded the chain’s target by "quite a long way", a spokeswoman said.

The 33-year-old supermodel was paid a reported £3 million to create the collection, which includes skinny jeans, one-shoulder mini dresses and T-shirts with the letter K woven into their designs.

Thousands of shoppers queued outside Topshop’s flagship London store for the April 30 launch. Her fashion range launched in New York last week and in Stockholm earlier this week.

Describing the £3 million sales generated in the first week in the UK, a Topshop spokeswoman said: "We are really surprised and excited that it was so successful because we have never done any collaboration like this before."

New items in the Kate Moss collection went on sale last week, the chain said.

Publicity generated by media coverage of the UK launch was worth an additional £2 million to £3 million to Topshop, according to a report in industry magazine Retail Week.

Sir Philip Green, boss of Arcadia Group which includes Topshop, now aims to launch the fashion chain in the US.

Kate to launch hair products? - May 15 2007
Not content with having a sell-out clothing range, Kate Moss has apparently decided to launch her own hair care products too.

Kate, 33, is said to be teaming up with long-time hairdresser pal James Brown, who has styled the likes of Madonna and Victoria Beckham, to endorse the new range, reports The Sun.

A source told the paper: "Kate is giving her advice and expertise from years in the fashion industry. The products will feature her image but, unlike Topshop, they won’t have Kate Moss branding."

Kate and James have apparently known each other since childhood when they both lived in Croydon, South London.

The source added: "James grew up with Kate and he has been massively supportive to her throughout her career."

Biography

In 1988, Kate Moss was discovered by Sarah Doukas, the founder of Storm model agency, at JFK airport at the age of just 14, as she prepared to board a flight home to London with her father.

After a series of shoots for teenage magazines, it was Harper’s Bazaar that finally launched her into the international arena. In 1992, she became the Face of Calvin Klein. Moss originally spearheaded the controversial "waif" look which critics claimed encouraged anorexia in impressionable teenagers. The girl from Croydon, who once said she "might’ve been a bank manager" now divides her time between London and LA, where she is often seen at The Viper Rooms, the controversial club owned by her one-time actor boyfriend Johnny Depp.

She has appeared in several notable documentaries about the fashion world and in 1995, released a hard-back book of pictures entitled simply "Kate". Having checked into London’s £300-a-day Priory Clinic in November 1998 suffering from exhaustion, Kate emerged refreshed the following January to announce that she had spent the last decade modelling "drunk". She told The Face magazine, "That’s what you do. You always have champagne before the shows. Always. Even at ten in the morning. It got to the point one time when we were [saying], ’We’re not going out without any champagne’."

Losing the Calvin Klein contract to fellow Brit Lisa Ratliffe in 1999, Kate has now taken on the status of fashion icon. In the May 2000 issue of Vogue, she played muse to a variety of the most cutting edge artists and photographers. In London she is still represented by Storm. Written in 2000
